Saturday at 11PM EDT The Android Invasion episode 2 of 4
Immediately afterward - The Keys of Marinus episode 6 of 6

In "Android Invasion", the 4th Doctor learns that everyone in the village and at the space station are duplicates. Where did all the real people go? Then, in the conclusion of "Keys Of Marinus", the 1st Doctor tries to overturn the court's verdict before Ian is executed. The surviving cast members then try to return the keys of Marinus to Arbitan, but may find it more difficult then they thought.
